Hi Mette,
No need to bring towels, blankets or sleeping bags. Clothes and toothbrushes? Yes!

The most important thing you MUST bring is....................................................................................
YOURSELVES.
The list so far........
Mette and hubby
Lilo
Kaz
Liz
Salin and hubby
Still waiting to hear from Rose, Lori and Dominique, could be a couple of last minute bookings.
Poops and Nev are arriving the day before everyone else because she has to scrub the floors for me.
Might seem like the smallest convention ever but I don't care, it is the first after all.
Sorry I don't have the time machine, it's out on hire this week.

I wish everyone could come too Shorthouse, wouldn't it be great if you could place a couple of pink TP's?
Just have to save up your pennies and come to see A M another time eh?
Lilo, I'll arrange for Poops to come and do some work for you. Can't have her sitting on her chorus and verse for the next few weeks.
It's getting nearer and nearer... WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Thank you Shorthouse, what a nice wee lassie you have turned into.
I hope the 'Shortbread' part of your sig is Scottish, best in the world.
Next year we might get lucky and have a big bash for everyone.
Save up from now and you'll make it.

Everyone is welcome to visit me ANYTIME!
There's always enough food to feed an army, I seem to have a fear of John going hungry.
Shortypants, I understand how things were at the beginning. Takes a wee while for people to get used to one another and it's so easy to say the wrong thing sometimes. I should know, I'm a flippin' expert at it!
Cathy and Gen, when do I air the beds for you??????
I must ask the memebers who are attending our convention.
Does anyone have any special dietary requirements?
What beverages do you like?
Smokers, non smokers?
This saves me from sending separate PMs to all of you, it's too hot to sit here for long spells.
Please send a PM with your details, I wouldn't want to be caught out.

Even though I have not been around the forum very long, it is thrilling to feel the excitement leading up to the first Wonderland Convention! I will be there in spirit and look forward to hearing all the details of how everything turned out! Have fun!

You must have a huge House,
I picture it. Like the movie the Quiet Man.
with John Wayne & what's her face.oh ya Maureen some body,O Hare
oh ya thats it.

My house isn't huge Cathy and I don't think it's like the cottage in The Quiet Man. The surroundings could be the same with all the fields, the name 'Maureen' is the same but not 'O' Hara.
John could be 'John Wayne' not quite as tall but erm..........
I'll let you guess the rest.
Btw, I do have the other 'Maureen's' fiery temper.

No not you,

wouldn't guess that in a million years.
Yes John could pass for JW.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Must be the hat that's similar to JW.
Hey Cathy, I might be more like Calamity Jane.

How exciting for all of you that are going.... I'd love to travel to far off lands and see exciting new places. I guess I'll have to start pinching pennies for the next one.
I wonder if Robbie in Austraila would mind putting everyone up

with all those kids he must have a big house

One bit at a time Laura, can't you beg, steal or borrow? Marry a wealthy man (an old one) or sell your house?
I won't tell anyone how you got here so don't worry.
From Missouri to Mo, how good is that?
I'll set an extra place for you, one never knows eh?

Thanks Ann,
That would be great. Now the only thing I am searching for is orange shoes. Who has a pair? So it is much more easier for Kaz to find. Now a need to know what she is wearing. Do you have something for her to Ann?
Greetings Rose
